How does pulse pressure and mean arterial pressure influence arterial blood pressure: heart action, blood volume, Peripheral resistance, viscosity????
pulse pressure is directly related to arterial pressure, assuming constant diameter and compliance.
this will increase venous return, bringing up the frank-starling relationship. basically increased venous return to the heart will cause greater contractility and results in an increase in stroke volume.

question is confusing read text book ( Guyton)and again ask ( mean arterial pressure and arterial pressure,), all others can be defined
The mean arterial pressure (MAP) is a term used in medicine to describe an average blood pressure in an individual. It is defined as the average arterial pressure during a single cardiac cycle. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mean_arterial_pressure
